There are very few people with terraforming permissions on my sim...and all of them were at work today, not terraforming, yet half of my land is underwater!

Could this be a SL issue? Or did someone screw up and not fessing up? Any ideas?

Has there been alot of rain where your at? Never heard of a technical screw up flooding a sim. I'd bet its one of the few, the proud, the estate managers, who rolled up the sea level. Sometimes its good to flood the place just so you can race boats around ;)

Things to do when your Sim floods:

Grow rice
Stock it with trout
skip stones
hide bodies of dead mobsters
call FEMA - demand money.
loot, pillage and burn
set up an underwater theme park.
bottle water - sell it for a premium as "naturally occuring spring water"
Train labrador retrievers to hunt ducks
place 50 gallon drums under all buildings until they float
pen in a shark and try to jump over it on waterskis
drop ambient temperature and make a skating rink
Stage an authentic Native American whale hunt
Stage an authentic Greenpeace anti-whale hunt demonstration.
Stand by breaker box in rubber boots and randomly electrocute trespassers by throwing the main switch when they wander into the water.

wish I could be of more help.

Just requested my first ever rollback :(

Apparently, after a sim crash last week, terraforming was turned on for the entire sim. We can see where someone modified our mountain, trying to dig something out that didn't even belong to them. Probably thought it was a leftover Easter egg. Anyway, modifying the mountain cause the sim's river to flood :(

Thanks all for the smiles :)
